Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has sent a mail-in application for a single entry, temporary resident visa to the NYC consulate in July? How long did it take to get this back? I trusted the visa processing time listed on their website - 14 days. Did not realise that these guys are highly inefficient. Would have researched this more, like I typically do!
I am a recent F1 graduate (Indian citizenship), and have an OPT for US. I am visiting a friend who is a Canadian passport holder, and she faxed an invitation letter and vouched for me (morally and financially). My onwards ticket from Canada is to Thailand and India - if this has any impact on the application. I also sent my own bank statements and all that.
I was stupid enough to not take down return envelope USPS tracking #. I did submit the online case application for processing time >14 days. Any other advice? I am in NYC on Tuesday and plan to go directly to the Consulate.
Thanks a lot!
